The 13 | Part 11

By: Greg Nasser, BOH director of operations

We’re taking you back to the fundamentals of our trade with a 13-part series on the 13 ethics of hospitality–brought to you by Director of Ops. Greg Nasser. Read on for part 11.

#11 Endurance – Remember to breathe. Try beginning your day with a workout or meditation. Above all, find ways to enjoy each day.

This ethic focuses on the self. In order to serve others, you must first feel good about yourself and the life you lead. This ethic reminds us to take care of ourselves because to provide happiness to others starts with ensuring that you yourself are happy.

Working in the hospitality industry means you work long hours, and often, long weeks. To endure, you must take care of your body and mind to build strength physically and mentally.
